Review:   Recommended for: Divers

Pros: From one of my clients, who stayed at Ninamu and Royal Huahine: "The Royal Huahine was a bit more private and had more amenities, but also had less opportunity for socializing. The rooms had A/C, a hot water kettle & mini-fridge. There is a supermarket in town to stock up on supplies if you don't want to have every meal at the restaurant. Some guests complained that it was lonely, but I found it restful. They had 4 boats a day into town, and you could schedule extra boats to go early for diving. I whole-heartedly recommend Mahana Dive. Other divers preferred it to the other dive shop on the island. Annie, the owner, speaks English and is committed to small groups and dive safety. She and her dive captain, Robert (an American) are great resources for things to do on the island. I brought my own dive gear but would use her rental gear if I were to visit again in order to save traveling weight. She had good quality weight-integrated BCDs and short wetsuits. Most diving was in the Pass, and on some days there was a fair amount of current. They did not use reef hooks, so dive gloves would be helpful. We saw lots of sharks, eagle rays, turtles and large schools of jacks. There were a few trips to areas with more coral, but most of the diving seemed to be about the pelagics.".

Cons: Isolated from town (could also be considered a plus!), required boat to get to town, most of staff French/Tahitian speaking only with exception of front reception staff who spoke excellent English.
